Five Best Rock Song for Learning English Effectively

Listening to music in a foreign language is an excellent way to learn vocabulary – just find the words online and use a dictionary for anything you don't know. Or just have songs playing while you do your homework. I’ve searched and chosen some songs which are easy to understand and can be found on YouTube for you to hear. What you can do is listen to it and enjoy the melody of the song. You also can download it directly from YouTube to MP3 converter if you think hearing online is not enough. They are truly brilliant music!

Top songs for learning English

5. Paramore – Crush

When you have a 'crush' on someone, you like them, and this song describes this perfectly. Paramore is very popular in England and has written lots of songs, so try “Misery Business” and the more recent “Still Into You too.”

4. Biffy Clyro – God and Satan

Not being seen as the happiest song ever written, but it's breathtaking. You will not regret when to let this song in your playlist. If you want a more lively song by the same band, try Mountains, Bubbles, or Born on a Horse.

3. The Cure – Friday I'm In Love

This band was popular in the 1980s, not now, but their music is still dynamic. This song also can go through all the days of the week. And who doesn't love Fridays?! Some of this band's songs are slightly odd, but if you like this, let’s try Boys Don't Cry or Close to Me.

2. The King Blues – I Got Love

It is a fun song with a cute message. If you want to figure what content of the message is, let try to hear it as soon as possible. I’ve seen this band live for two years at a music festival in Liverpool, England, and they were cool.

1. 30 Seconds to Mars – The Kill

The perfect song to refresh your mind if you're stressed! This band also makes amazing music videos which are almost like short films – the video for this song is based on the horror film “The Shining” and is available on YouTube. More brilliant songs from 30 Seconds to Mars include “Kings and Queens” and “This is War.” 

We hope you enjoy listening to these songs – who knows; you might find your new favorite band accidentally! Look out for more posts with songs from other styles of music.
